The Vancouver Canucks paid an emotional tribute to Pat Quinn prior to their game against the New Jersey Devils on Tuesday.

Quinn, a former Canucks player during the early 1970s and head coach from 1990-95, passed away Sunday at the age of 71 due to an unspecified illness. He also served as the team’s president and general manager.

The Canucks began the ceremony with a moment of silence, followed by anthem singer Mark Donnelly's rendition of "O Danny Boy" while a video montage played on the scoreboard above centre ice.
